Pituitary adenylate cyclase activating polypeptide protects dopaminergic neurons and improves behavioral deficits in a rat model of Parkinson's disease
TL;DR: The present results show the neuroprotective effect of PACAP in 6-OHDA-induced lesion of substantia nigra, with less severe acute neurological symptoms and a more rapid amelioration of behavioral deficits.

TL;DR: The studies summarized here provide strong evidence for the cytoprotective effects of PACAP in non-neuronal cell types, peripheral tissues, and organs.

TL;DR: The upregulation of endogenous PACAP and its receptors and the protective effect of exogenous PACAP after different central and peripheral nerve injuries show the important function of PACAP in neuronal regeneration indicating that PACAP may also be a promising therapeutic agent in injuries of the nervous system.

TL;DR: It is shown that local PACAP treatment could attenuate the retinal degeneration induced by the excitotoxic effects of glutamate, and retinas of rats treated with PACAP showed significantly less damage, with clearly distinguishable inner retinal layers.

TL;DR: Pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) has a neuroprotective effect in different toxin-induced rat and snail parkinsonian models, acting partially through the same mechanisms.
